Celebrate Spirit. Sip. Savor. Support.

There’s a new must-attend event lighting up Denver’s summer calendar—and it’s got heart, flavor, and hometown flair in every bite. Introducing Spirit Colorado, the ultimate festival of food, wine, community, and purpose, hosted by Volunteers of America Colorado (VOA Colorado) and held on Thursday, June 12th, and Saturday, June 14th.

Spirit Colorado is more than an event—it’s a joy-fueled movement with heart and purpose. It all begins with an exclusive VIP dinner on June 12^th, then unfolds into a day filled with flavor, fun, music, and movement on Saturday, June 14^th. Designed to bring people together in celebration and connection, Spirit Colorado delivers unforgettable experiences with real impact. And the best part? Every ticket supports VOA Colorado’s life-changing programs for veterans, seniors, families, and children across the state.

THURSDAY, JUNE 12th VIP DINNER: AN EVENING TO REMEMBER

This special event invites guests to gather for an unforgettable evening of:

• Elevated culinary experiences
• Heartfelt storytelling
• Community connection under the Colorado sky
• Celebrating Colorado icon Sue Anschutz-Rodgers, who will be recognized for her unwavering commitment to the people, land, and legacy of Colorado, especially its rural and Southwestern communities.

SATURDAY, JUNE 14th WINE & SPIRIT FESTIVAL: 11 A.M. – 4 P.M.

The heart of the action kicks off with a vibrant daytime celebration:

• Tastings with 10 of Colorado’s favorite wineries and five distilleries
• Local restaurants offering a variety of culinary options
• Live entertainment from local bands, including the Wash Park Band
• Immersive experiences that celebrate our state’s culture
• Live graffiti art from local artists

And don’t miss the high-energy media cook-off, where local media outlets and celebrities will team up with chefs and sommeliers for a fierce (and fun!) appetizer-and-wine pairing competition. Think Chopped meets Cheers—with audience members tasting, voting, and cheering as teams compete for a $10,000 donation to the VOA Colorado program of their choice.

All proceeds go to help individuals and families facing homelessness, hunger, and hardship.

So come hungry. Come curious. Come ready to raise a glass to what matters most.
